SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH RHUBARB SAUCE



Skillet Pork Chops with Rhubarb Sauce image

Every summer I look forward to cooking with the rhubarb that grows like wild where my family lives in Minnesota. We usually bake it into a dessert crumble, but I love this super-citrusy, savory use of it in a sauce for quick pan-seared pork chops.

Provided by Gabriela Rodiles

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 shallot, thinly sliced
1-inch piece ginger, grated (about 1 tablespoon)
Zest and juice of 1 orange
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large stalks fresh rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch chunks (about 2 cups)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Four 1/2-inch-thick bone-in pork rib chops (about 2 pounds), patted dry
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine the shallot, ginger, orange zest and juice, lemon zest and juice, brown sugar, vinegar, paprika, crushed red pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the rhubarb and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb breaks down and the sauce thickens, 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, score 1/2-inch-deep slits with a paring knife 1 inch apart around the fatty side of the pork chops. Season both sides of the pork chops with 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once oil the very hot and shimmering, carefully add the pork chops. Sear the chops until golden brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the chops near but not touching bone reads 140 degrees F, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Serve the pork chops topped with the rhubarb sauce and mint.

SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH BLISTERED GRAPES



Skillet Pork Chops With Blistered Grapes image

Pork chops make a great weeknight dinner, and this dish is no exception. It looks and feels special, but comes together in about 20 minutes with very minimal prep. Selecting bone-in pork chops is beneficial beyond appearance: The bones protect the meat to keep it moist. However, you could also use boneless chops or even chicken breasts, if you'd prefer; just be sure to reduce the cooking time accordingly.

Provided by Samantha Seneviratne

Categories     dinner, snack, weeknight, meat, one pot, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 bone-in, 1-inch-thick pork chops (about 3/4 pound each)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 cups small, seedless red grapes
1 shallot, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup chicken stock
2 teaspoons grainy mustard
1 tablespoon heavy cream or unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high. Pat the chops dry with paper towels, and season well with salt and pepper. Cook the chops until just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Add the grapes to the skillet, and sauté until brown in spots, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to the plate. Reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the shallot and garlic, and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and thyme, and cook for 1 minute.

SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH SALSA VERDE



Skillet Pork Chops with Salsa Verde image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Four 12- to 14-ounce bone-in pork loin chops, about 1 inch thick
Extra-virgin olive oil, for cooking
2 cups loosely packed fresh Italian parsley leaves
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1 tablespoon lemon juice plus 1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne, or to taste
3 scallions, coarsely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed and peeled
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the pork chops: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Combine the paprika, salt, sugar and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the surface of the chops and let the chops rest on a rack while you make the salsa verde.
  • For the salsa verde: Combine the parsley, capers, lemon juice, zest, mustard, salt, cayenne, scallions and garlic in a blender. Pulse to make a coarse paste. With the blender running on high, add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream to make a thick, smooth sauce. With the blender running on low, add up to 2 tablespoons water to thin the sauce so it has a drizzle consistency.
  • For the pork chops: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then coat with some olive oil. Add the chops to the skillet and sear until the underside is well browned, about 4 minutes. If the sides of the chops have a thick layer of fat, turn them briefly on their sides to sear the fat, about 30 seconds. Flip the chops raw-side down and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the chops are just cooked through and reach 140 to 145 degrees F in the center as measured on an instant-read thermometer, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with the salsa verde.

SKILLET ROASTED PORK CHOPS WITH SPRING VEGETABLES AND MUSTARD SAUCE



Skillet Roasted Pork Chops with Spring Vegetables and Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup radishes, cut in half through the stem
1/2 cup shelled English peas
1/2 cup snow peas
2 bone-in pork chops (8 to 10 ounces each), brought to room temperature
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 cloves garlic, smashed
3 sprigs fresh tarragon
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup finely chopped leeks
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice water bath. In batches by type, blanch the radishes, English peas and snow peas in the boiling water for 1 minute per batch. Transfer each batch to the ice water to stop the cooking process, then transfer to a colander to drain. Cut the snow peas into julienne strips. Transfer the blanched vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
  • Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with the coriander, cumin and some salt and pepper.
  • Add the oil to the pan and heat until smoking. Add the pork chops, reduce the heat to medium and cook until caramelized on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip the chops and cook until caramelized on the other side, another 3 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic, tarragon and 3 tablespoons of the butter. Cook, basting the pork with the butter (be careful not to burn the butter, though it will brown lightly), until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F for medium, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chops to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the sauce and finish the vegetables.
  • Drain off half of the butter, add the leeks and saute until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the white wine and cook, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the chicken stock and mustard and cook for a few minutes until slightly reduced. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to form a pan sauce and season with the champagne vinegar. Add the reserved vegetables to warm in the sauce while it simmers to reduce, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper as necessary.
  • Serve the vegetables and sauce with the pork and garnish with dill.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 -6 center-cut pork chops (center cut with BONE IN)
salt & pepper
1 1/2 cups chicken broth (OR 1 cup broth & 1/2 cup white wine, if you prefer )
onion powder
ginger powder
2 tablespoons oil, just enough to lightly cover the bottom of pan. I use olive oil, but vegetable oil can be used
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon flour
1 dash Gravy Master

Steps:

  • Heat the oil & then brown the chops well on both sides in the skillet. Once browned, sprinkle each chop with salt, pepper, onion powder, and ginger powder. Add the broth or the broth/wine combo totaling a cup and a half, reduce heat to low & cover.
  • Simmer for approximately 45 minutes. Spoon the pan drippings over the chops for added flavor & moistness while cooking. Serve with rice or noodles.
  • For optional gravy: Blend 1/4 cup water and 1 tablespoon flour in small bowl until free of lumps. Add this mixture into the pan liquid and cook over low-med heat, stirring until it has thickened (you can always add a little water at this point if needed). Sometimes I add Gravy Master for color.
  • I usually put the chops back into the pan for several minutes once the gravy is done to make sure the dish is hot enough to serve.
